StarTech SATA12 SATA Data Cable
Overview
The StarTech SATA12 is a 12-inch (304.8 mm) SATA data cable designed for connecting SATA storage devices to a motherboard or controller. This cable is essential for building or expanding storage arrays in servers, workstations, or surveillance NVRs where reliable data transfer is critical. Its 6 Gbps performance rating ensures it meets the demands of modern SSDs and HDDs, while the 26 AWG wire gauge provides signal integrity. The 7-pin connectors ensure a secure data connection. The SATA12 is suitable for installations where a specific cable length is required to manage airflow and cable clutter within a chassis.
Compatibility
This SATA data cable is compatible with all devices featuring a standard 7-pin SATA data port. This includes virtually all SATA hard drives (HDD), solid-state drives (SSD), and SATA optical drives. It is also compatible with SATA controllers found on motherboards and dedicated RAID cards across PC, server, and workstation platforms. Specifically, it is suitable for connecting drives to SATA ports on network video recorders (NVRs) that utilize standard SATA interfaces for internal storage expansion.
Installation Notes
The cable features standard 7-pin SATA data connectors that plug directly into corresponding ports. Ensure the connector is fully seated to guarantee a stable connection. The 12-inch length is ideal for internal chassis wiring where routing space is limited. The PVC jacket offers flexibility and durability for internal routing. The 6 Gbps performance is dependent on the host controller and the connected drive also supporting this speed.
